I've had just the one loco done by Rob and am well satisfied with the result, but I believe @Bob G of this parish has had several done. Rob will weather to the degree you specify e.g. light, medium or heavy and will also add all those little details someone like me is too old and knackered to even see, let alone apply
Of course, this may involve the loss of a coupling at one end but the choice is there for you

Other than that, Rails of Sheffield offer a weathering service as do TMC Models and Grimy Times, however I reckon your loco will be looked upon as one of his own if you use Rob

I just directed him, Chris.

@Newportnobby will testify. Why not use the pm @Ensign Elliott Rob of this parish and send photos of the locomotive (s) / rolling stock which you wish to be weathered.  George gave some examples in the link above

Hi - I'm looking to have some locos professionally weathered, any recommendations for businesses doing that would be great.

Notice the electric "fat boy" bike in the background in 2nd pic. Dunno if they are prevelant in other parts of the world, but they are an absolute nuisance. I've almost been cleaned up by these things on more than one occasion. Ridden by kids!

Is that 'Air on a', your wifes, or the one you wear under your tutu. I'm sure we'd all appreciate a 'how to' tutorial on how to make handrails from either.
